Lascy theta stopped his march: General Pepin, who had taken the command of the troops at St. Lucar, marched against him without delay. On the morning, of the 28th he attacked him ai Man zanilla, from whence he pursued him as fa?as Vil lalba. A corps of 300 Spanish cavalry'having at tempted resistance, the Duke of Aremberg, At • the bead -Of the 2d regiment of hussars,. charged them irrupediately all who were not killed were taken, Awd on the 2jth our troops re-entered Moguer. in disorder during the night, .leaving .kieat -:deal 'of . property . on the beach, and a great par't of their casks both . empty and full: Thus this expedition, which had for. its .objeat to re-victual-Cadiz, and to Make a diver4ion, kop - t in check by Ge nerat Girard, produced nothing but ditrace to the enemy, who lost besides:a great trnmber-of soldiers by desertion. _ _ _ 'SgprEkasa.—The want of water induced the • besieged to attempt a. new debarkation. It took place on the 15th of September at Moguer, whither Copons. marched from the banks of the Guadiana to support it ; but the Adjutant-Comtuandant Re mood; - and the Duke of Aremberg, manoeuvred with so much promptitude;that Copons was soot) come up with, beaten, and chased anew beyond St. Bartholomew and Castaya, and the troops of Cadiz were again obliged to re-embark with precipi tation. GRANADA AND MURCIA: SEPTED,IBER.---The collect ions of the Murcian peasants, under the Command of Blake, threatening the frontiers of Granada, General Sebastiani set out from the city of Granada at the latter end of Au gust to disperse or destroy them. Ott his apptoach they became panic-stiuck, and fled in every direc tion. The army entered Murcia without having occasion to fire a single shut. From thence he di reeled his 'march to several points in pursuit of the enerrif, but he was not able, to. come up wilh them any where. Two • &tat hments only were over taken within two leagues -of Carthagena, and de stroyed. . While the General employed in this expedi tion, two bands of robbers from the mountains of Granada uni ed, forced some hundreds to join them, add proceeded to the environ.: of the town .uf Gra nada.

A party of them had the impudence to make an attack on Thomellusee on the 2d of Sep tember.. Colonel Baron Kruse was dispatched against them. He came up ‘.% ith them at Sa quallamos • they consisted of 300 mrantry.and 200 cavalry. Colonel Kruse mide such excellent movements, that upwards of 100 of them were killed, a great muter were wounded, and their baggage was taken by Colohel Kruse, who ordered the miserable re mains of ti e gang to be pursued. Thu others are, defeated - in the same manner when it is possible to, come up with them: GUADILAXARA. The band of L'Etnpecinado, 1200 strong, had approached Cifuentes and the environs.

BISCAY . The weak bands that vi ere in Biscay are entirely dispersed, with the exception of one only, which •commits the most horrible excesses upon the inha bitants. It is pursued, and will soon cease to exist. All the towns and villages of the ihree Pioviuces of Biscay are forming civic guards to press rve 'hat tranquility which they enj iy at present, and to assist our trOops in case the brigands should again crake their appearance.

AUGUST.—On the ,voth of August, Renonvier, Chief of Baltalion, commanding at Jaca, surprised at Anso, a notorious leader of robbers, with 3u if his to►lowers, thr• residue of the gang. This leader, as well as 14 of band, were killed on the spot, and 11 others taken and shot. This was the 14.4 of We thii morning received the following intelli gence by the Goctenburgh Mail, we hare only time at present to call the attention of our Readers to the article from Petersbnrgh, which will be tound'very important. HELSINGBURG, OCT. Crown Prince is expe&ed here,, the day after to-morrow ; prepara tions having been making here fur some days for the accommodation of himself and suite; among the_ latter are said to be two or three French Generals. ST. PETERSBURGH; OCT. is confidently' asserted, that instructions have been sent out to KAMIN:iIr to renew the proposals made some time ago to the Grand Seigiuhr, 'and that fUll powers have been given to concede the point on which the last negocation broke off, shoUld it be necessary, some , t , altaliuus which were under .orders for the a: my in Turkey, have received counter orders, and will proceed to Courland and _the Polish provinces. A rumour has reached us from Berlin, that Mar shal 132aTmEa is to be created King of Poland. GOTTENBURGH, OCT. 17. - Travellers assure us th.it GOSTAVUS ADOLPHUS (Count GoTTORP) has ar riled at St. Petersburgh,, where been well re- Bef)re he left Riga, he is said to have ad dressed a strong letter to the King and Diet on the sutsjeCt of the late etetlion. We have received French Papers to the 24th inst. These Papers completely justify the doubts we en tertained respeaing the report of a illoniteur having• been received, with MASSENA'S account of the battle of Busaco: no such account had reached Paris up to the 24th. From this very extraordinary delay, it is obvious, either that MASSENA was not very aniciou3 to send an account of the battle of •Busaco, or else that he had not the means of sending a- Courier through Portugal and Spain. In the abience of offi vial dispatches from MAsseNA, tl,e Il loniteter been obliged to publish a very v.•lgue and imperfed account of that aelion, .traosmitted. , by General DROLIET, who Was at Valladolid, and who received it not officially, but nom a person upon whom he mild place confidence. DaouET's account is dated the 10th inst. ; so that thirteen days had elapsed before [RI heard of the battle of BG,aco; but the most extritOrdihary part of. the statement is, that G6neral lltaltrir says, that the Officer • who was the bearer o4' MIISSENAs dispatches, Was proceeding. with the guard which escorted soave Bag] sh prisoners said to have been taken . at Busaeo. Now, as the prisoners could not march more than 20 or 25 wiles a day, he probably may in the course of a feW weeks reach Paris ,with his 'Dispatches. Nothing can be a stronger corroboration of LOrd WELLING TON'S assertion, that " the French only possessed the ground they stood upon," than this statement; -because if MASSENA had retained possession of any part of Portugal that he had overrun, he would not have been under the necessity ,of sending his Dis patches under the protection of the same escort as the prisoners of War. General DRQUET, 'is said, was proceeding to Altneida to keep up. the communications in the rear' of the army. We apprehend that there is some accuracy in this, statement, and th it, for " keep up," we should read " open," for every line of DROUET's account proves that they were completely closed. The Munitear acknowledges the surrender of the Lie of Bourbon, but predicts that the English will be repulsed in their attack upon the Mauritius. ‘, No accounts had been received from Portugal when this Paper Was put to press. A Proclamation said to have been issued by MASSENA on the 17th inst. announcing a vietory is in circulation, but it is so evidently a fabrication, that we have not thought necessary to insert it. PRINCESS AMELIA.—The report of her Royal Highness ye.terday wa., that she had a tolerable good night, having, slept two hauls, and had taken some refreshment. 'this favourable report put the ROYAL FAMILY IN high _spirits; and the Prince of WALES rode out on horseback for - the - first time since be has been at Windsor during the indisposi tion of his Royal Sister. The Duke of KENT left Windsor •for Castle Bar Hill. • W S MAJESTY is indisposed with a slight cold. On Saturday he. went into the warm bath, by ad vice of the Dotiors who attend the Princess AMELI. 'Same day Dr. HEBRRDEN arrived at Windsor to anend his MAJESTY and remain with him, and yesterday Sir FRANCIS MILLMAN arrived for the same purpose. We repeat, however, that his MAJESTY'S indisposition proceeds merely from a slight cold, of which he was yesterday Somewhat recovered: At twelve o'clock the LORD CHANCELLOR and the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER wailed on . his MAJksTy, and transataed official husine4s with him fiis m AjEsT y, s i nce he complained of a cold, has renhuved from his own apartments in Wind sor Castle to the QUEEN'S which overlook the Terrace, A Dublin Paper of the 26th contains an article from the head -quarters of our army in Portugal, dotted on the 16th, two days later than the last dis patthes, which were dated the 14th. The article mentions, that the bittle,was expected to take place on the. t9th or 20th, and is as follows : DUBLIN, OCT. 26.—We love it in our power to exti ad an important fad, from intelligence, which We give with the fullest confidence of its authenti city, and• which is dated at the head-quarters of-the Allied Army in Portugal, on the 16th inst. the latest date from 'that country. On the day just stated, it was_understood in Lord WELLINGTON'S army, from unquestionable circumstances, that MASSENA would not delay his grand attack more three or four days. The Allies expeEted it with feelings that strongly, anticipated victory, and therefore wished for it. The weather was then unusually inclement, so as to pre- vent the posSibility of embarkation, if that measure had been meditated, which, however, there did not exist ti•e sligiltest idea of.", Some advices have been received by two Gentle men who have arrived from Bilboa, of the state of the Fremth force in the province of which that town is the capital. On or about the . 14th inst. the enemy had, in different stations in Biscay, from 17,000 to .20,000 men, wit..eh were capable of being as sembled at any one point . in 24 hours. It was in consequeuce . of intelligence having been obtained of the progress of the intended enterprise from Corunna, that this force had been collected to provide against the attack from that quarter. The inhabitants of the territory were said to be in the best disposition for revolt against the invaders, and that if muskets were provided, a great nuo)ber of volunteers would be ready to co-operate with the expedition. We have some serious apprehensions of the effetts of the late tempestuous weather in the Bay. A firing nu the French coast was heard on Sa turday, supposed to be rejoicing for the victory • which MASSENA claims with respect to the battle of Busaco. It may have been for the arrival of the Em peror of Austria at Paris; or might be some shots exchanged between the enemy's flotilla at Boulogne and our crnizers. A let er frJtn Cadiz states, that, in consequence of the Enemy having attempted to annoy our ships at that place by red-hot shots, Admiral KEATS directed 'an attack on the fort of Catalani, on the 2(1 inst. with 18 mortars and howitzers, and some gun-boats, which bombarded the fort for two hours, it is supposed, will' considerable effect, as several good shells fell into the tort. The attack was corn wauded by Capt. SANDIES, of the Alias. OLD CASTILE. SEPTEMBER.—The leader.or a small band, which was collected at 'limps, formed, by compelling the peasants to join him, a corps of 900 u tool aod 150 horse. General • !toper, commanding at Soria, marched against Lim with 1000 infantry and , 300 cavalry. On the 6th of September, he discovered them in a posttion before the village, 'and, imme diately charged them. Their line was thrown into confusion, our cavalry seized ttie Opportunit . i, they were all overwhelmed and cut to pieces. Upward., of 200 men and 55 Ortic,rs' were killed ; 300 were wounded, and several hundreds surrendeied. POR COGAL. The English', alter _having suffered Ciudad Ro drigo and Almeida to be taken, look a position on the tine heights of . G uarda, and gave out that they intended to wait f o r the Frcuch army there. We marched against them, and they deemed a retreat toast prudent. On the tstb, the bead -quarters of the Prince of Essling .wet e at Viseu.
